Reveiw
The reason I thought about reading Twilight was because of all the stuff i was hearing about it from friends. I wanted to know what all the buzz was about. There was all this talk and uproar and it seemed very interesting. I think that the book was alright, but it wasn't what I thought it was going to be like. Since I have heard all about it prior to reading the book, it was kind of spoiled of the whole reading experience with all the suspense. It was all to predictable. But I do think that this book was pretty good. I recommend this book for teenagers who are into suspense, romance, and fiction. This book is pretty well rounded and could have a pretty broad audience. Overall it was pretty good.
